Recent reports in Italy suggested that United had lodged their offer for Vidal and were awaiting a reply from the Serie A giants about a potential deal.

However, new Juve boss Allegri has now crushed United’s hopes of landing the midfielder after he insisted that the 27-year-old will not be leaving the club in the coming weeks.

‘Vidal? He’s not going anywhere,’ Allegri said during a press conference at Juventus’ training camp in Singapore.

Vidal has reportedly grown anxious to leave the Italian champions after seeing reports linking him with a move to the Premier League following his impressive performances for Chile at the World Cup in Brazil this summer.

Bundesliga Champions Bayern Munich are also thought to be tracking the Chilean, but, the player is believed to prefer a move to England.

The 27-year-old – who signed for Juventus from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2011 – only signed a new contract with the Bianconerri last year.
